To reclaim her family business, Wei Xin Ran disguises herself as a "player" and bides her time for ten years. However, due to a conspiracy, she is forced into a whirlwind marriage with the mysterious Shen Zhi Nian. Shen Zhi Nian, seemingly aloof, is actually a thousand-year-old merman who was betrayed by his lover in a past life. He has been searching for his wife for a century with a pair of adorable children who can read minds and control fish. After the marriage, Wei Xin Ran accidentally discovers golden scales behind her husband's ear. Fragments of her dreams and hazy memories gradually overlap, revealing a century-old secret.

Steamy start but FL didn't put much effort in her relationship with ML & the kids
I got to know this drama from my reddit friend the week of Halloween. The last time I watched short dramas that feature a mermaid / merman was back in May so I was excited. Unfortunately I had mixed feelings about this drama.What I liked:
1. Fantasy - I enjoyed the fantasy elements like the appearance of ML's scales, tail and gills.
2. Kisses - Good kissing scenes. That opening scene was hot.
3. Styling - I liked the matching outfits they wore - the black business casual when ML showed dowry for FL and the white casual outfits when ML offered shoulder massage.
4. Supporting characters - I liked the twins. They always planned dates for their parents. I also liked ML's butler / subordinate.
5. Styling - I liked the merman outfit + VFX for merman scenes. I also liked FL's businesswear.
What I disliked:
1. Romance - They didn't spend a lot of time together and they always bickered & had misunderstandings. I felt FL didn't make much effort in their marriage.
2. FL characterisation - She was too focused on her career and her stepmother - I found her unlikeable.
3. Antagonists - SML was interested in the study of mermaids. I hated him for abducting the kids to lure ML.
